And that You have been discourteously treated out of fun—while walking, while on a bed, while on a seat, while eating, in privacy, or, O Acyuta, even in public—for that, I beg pardon of You, the incomprehensible One.

Swami Gambiranandaafter Śaṅkara's bhāṣya· paired with Śaṅkara

And whatever disrespect has been shown to You in jest, while playing, resting, sitting, or eating, whether alone or in the presence of others, O Acyuta—I implore You for forgiveness, You who are incomprehensible.

Swami Adidevanandaafter Rāmānuja's bhāṣya· paired with Rāmānuja

Whatever disrespect I have shown to You, making fun of You in the course of play, or while on the bed, or on the seat, or at meals, either alone or in the presence of respectable persons—for that, I beg pardon of You, the Unconceivable One, O Acyuta!

Dr. S. Sankaranarayanafter Madhva's bhāṣya· paired with Madhva

In whatever way I may have insulted You for the sake of fun, while at play, reposing, sitting, or at meals, when alone (with You), O Krishna, or in company, that I implore You, immeasurable one, to forgive.

Swami SivanandaThe Bhagavad Gita

Whatever insults I have offered to You in jest, in sport, in repose, in conversation, or at a banquet, alone or in a crowd, I ask for Your forgiveness for them all, O You Who are without equal!

Shri Purohit SwamiThe Geeta

And in that You were treated without honour, were slighted, for the sake of jest, for mirth: where? In play, in resting, in sitting, in eating. Playing is play, the exercise of the feet; lying down is rest; sitting is the seat; eating is the partaking of food; in these, alone, out of sight, You were treated without honour; or else, O Acyuta, before Your face, in their presence, You were slighted. For all that array of offences I beg pardon, I cause You to grant pardon, You who are immeasurable, beyond all measure. Since You.
